 I've now permanently moved my blog over to http://chocolateandvodka.com/ and will no long be updating this version, other than with the occasional summary of new posts. Please do not leave comments here, but instead find the equivalent post on my new site, and comment there instead. Comments left here will not be published, as I'd like to keep things all together on the new installation. Sorry if this is an inconvenience. |
Dying silk

I rather stupidly put 70 quid's worth of silk skirt through the washing machine. It is, to say the least, a shadow of it's previous silky black self. I mean, the dye hasn't washed out completely or anything, but it now has a grey sheen to it that it didn't have before but which makes it look old. I know silk is tricksy stuff. Any tips on restoring it to its former glory?

There is a way, but it costs £70 and a bus fare.
Re: Dying silk
I have bought a silk suit for my sister's wedding, any tips would be useful. I love the fabric, but it is not very sustainable, well not the flimsy silk.
I was hoping to have a chat with you yesterday at the blogging conference, I am a friend of Geoff Jones from Cambridge. I liked your presentation style, you are so confident. Geoff and I met at Toastmasters to improve our public speaking, you can read about it on my blog. Hope to meet up with you another day. Re: Re: Dying silk

I'm sorry to have missed you. I had been intending to hang around, but a deadline crept up and bit me whilst I wasn't looking, and I had to leave at lunchtime so that I could get things done on time. Please do feel free to email if you'd like a slightly less public chat!
